  • If you ever need a copy of our current Terms of Business, just let us know—we're more than happy to email or post it to you. This agreement contains the terms and conditions of business between you the client and bb haus ltd. If you have any questions or want to chat about the process in more detail, give us a call or video call, or we'll come see you at home.

    To keep things above board and protect both your interests and ours, we might need to hold onto copies of your photo ID and a document that confirms your home address. This helps us make sure we're dealing with the rightful property owners and staying clear of any money laundering issues. Don't worry, this information will never be passed to third parties. We use top-notch third-party software for these checks, and by signing our terms of business, you're giving us the green light to do so.

  • Thinking about renting out your property? You'll need a market appraisal. At bb haus, we offer a free, no-obligation appraisal of your home's current market value. With our extensive knowledge of the market and the area, we'll provide comparable evidence to back up our valuation. We'll also suggest ways to maximise your property's potential and get the highest rent possible. Since the lettings market can be quite seasonal, if you get an appraisal well in advance of your move, we recommend reviewing the price before putting it on the market.

    • After we've given you a verbal valuation, you'll receive a written one. This can come in handy when getting approval from your mortgage company to let your home. You'll need to return a signed set of our Terms of Business along with a set of keys and a copy of a valid EPC (we can arrange this for you at a very competitive price through our trusted partners). Once we have everything, we'll immediately reach out to our existing applicant database to arrange viewings. Within 48 hours, professional photographers and floorplanners will visit your property.

    • At bb haus we take pride in our diligent, personal service. You can count on regular updates about how your property and the wider market are performing. You can call us directly at any time too. We’ll also provide feedback on any potential issues or improvements. Remember, the lettings market can shift quickly with supply and demand changes. Staying on top of these changes ensures your property is correctly priced and presented.

    • bb haus is a member of the following organisations: Client Money Protect, Property Redress Scheme, NRLA, ICO.

  • When we receive an offer, we'll ask for it in writing along with any special conditions. We're obliged to present every offer we receive. We'll call you to discuss the details and email the terms for your reference. Once you accept an offer, subject to contract and referencing, we'll take a deposit of one week’s rent from the tenant to show their intention to proceed. We'll then draft the Tenancy Agreement and ask the tenants to complete a referencing form.

    During the period between taking a deposit and finalising the agreement, there's usually a commitment to proceed in good faith, exclusively for both the landlord and the tenant. Once a deposit is taken, we typically stop viewings.

Alright, here’s the scoop. The tenancy agreement is like the playbook for landlords and tenants—it tells who’s responsible for what in terms of maintenance and repairs. It’s a contract between the tenant and the landlord. If we’re managing the property, our job is to be the middleman—taking notes from tenants, passing them to landlords, and following their instructions. Click here to read the tenancy playbook.
